Using fields and explicit substitutions to implement objects and functions in a de Bruijn setting

We propose a calculus of explicit substitutions with de Bruijn indices for implementing objects and functions which is confluent and preserves strong normalization. We start from Abadi and Cardelli’s ς-calculus [1] for the object calculus and from the λυ-calculus [20] for the functional calculus. Th...
